The state of matter is actually to states of matter. Solid and liquid are the states of matter that have a volume,(liquid) and shape(solid).
Most solids have a definite shape and a definite volume. But solids such as sand and salt can pour and flow like a liquid but are solid.
Solid state has definite shape AND volume.
(Liquid only has definite volume, and gas has neither)
A solid has a defined shape and volume

Solids are the only forms of matter having definite shape and volume.
There is no such state of matter. Solid has a definite shape and volume, liquid has a definite volume but not a definite shape, gases have neither a definite shape nor a definite volume.
No state of matter corresponds to this. Solids are the only state with definite shape, but they have a definite volume too.
gas
Liquids have no shape, but a defined volume
matter having no definite volume and no definite shape is a liquid
The state of matter having a definite volume but no definite shape is liquid.
gas
matter having no definite volume and no definite shape is a liquid
A state of matter having definite volume but no definite shape is called, "liquid".
Solids
Solids are the only forms of matter having definite shape and volume.
Liquid
Matter that takes both the shape and volume of its container is a gas. A solid is characterized by having a definite shape and definite volume.
a solid
a solid because the particles don't move like your computer water doesn't have a definite shape because it moves and flows gas doesn't have a definite volume because it takes the shape of its container and plasma is just special
